Copyright 1983.
A six week very
early 'dots' of ink only pen and ink drawing working by naked eye
only, of course.
Developing the technique over previous years and so on, this was
the first drawing that I thought was 'good enough' to subsequently
produce a print of - followed by half a dozen or so after this one
to start, modestly, the Gallery in Bridport, West Dorset, England in
1984.
Measurements of original and print:
9.5cms.
x 5cms.. Price of Artist's signed and mounted print each :£22.50p. inclusive
surprisingly.
Description of
composition:
This romantic, peaceful
spring is situated on the outskirts of beautiful Stoke Abbott
village, near Beaminster, West Dorset, England.
The lion's headstone
facing over the old spring was itself added in 1953 to mark Queen
Elizabeth II 's Coronation and is twice inscribed ' E.R.'
A brass drinking cup
hangs by a chain yet, rather incongruously, a wooden sign warns
'polluted water'.................a mystical picture with a strong
Romanesque, romantic quality.
